after the previous group, with over 1mln members, was shut down by fb (probably under pressure or provocation from the thai government), a new one spring up 

https://www.facebook.com/groups/521768548962828 

which has 270k membership.

There are now many other copy cat groups. Now down to people interested to immigrate to one particular country, continent or to EU.

 

those 18% wanted to immigrate means many millions people see thailand as a failed state.

Many others can't immigrate, because they don't have 30k for an air ticket and do realise, that they won't pass financial requirements for visa application (for example owning a house, high wages etc).

 

Would be interesting to compare, how many citizens would like to immigrate from the countries, to where thai want to go. But I suspect those figures will be much smaller.

So yes, there are many expats in thailand, some 500k from the first world countries, mostly pensioners. But those thai wanted to immigrate are young, at the most productive part of life and their fertility. They are vital to thai economy. Imagine in what state thai economy would be if some 7mln workers suddenly left the country. Those people are also consumers for the local economy, so some 18% of GDP lost.

 

And how thailand would survive without the next generation of their offspring. Thailand is already very aged society and population is shrinking. That's why there are some 5mln economic immigrants from the neighbouring countries, mostly young and trying to settle for good

 

   

Not true,the group is still there
